day 10 | angel
[ on the door to angel's apartment is a piece of paper, folded over and with "ANGEL" scrawled over the outside in rhys' handwriting. if she finds it and opens it, there will be a letter. ]
Angel,
I know I'm the last guy you want to hear from but if you're reading this, I'm probably dead. Good. I don't deserve to live after all I've done and I prefer it this way. But you know who deserves to live?
You.
See, here's the thing and before you read this know that reading it will hurt you. I'm sorry about that, but the damage shouldn't be enough to kill you. So, right. Those memories you have, about Pandora and Elpis and Hyperion? Fake, fake, fake. You probably have an inkling about that by now so I'm here to confirm it.
You might be wondering then why is it that you, me, and Jack have the same fake memories of the fake place, right? Think about it a little. Think about when you killed Paladin Danse. Did it feel right? Did it feel like the man you were looking for? No? Because it never was, Angel. That man wasn't me either. You can guess who it is now.
But the truth sucks, Angel, and I promise you, you don't want to die and be stuck with the two guys who really don't deserve to be around you. So, please survive and here's the thing: killing the Overseer won't help you do that. If you kill Ciel, you lose a lot of information and just keep playing right into the experiment. Ciel created a way out of the experiment for all of you, you just have to talk to him. He's thirteen years old, scared out of his mind, and knows there's an angry mob right out there ready to kill him despite the fact he never killed anyone. He didn't, Angel! He didn't see the point in playing along with the experiment and that's why he hid. He needed time to find another option.
That's what the attack is for. You have it and you could ignore me, you could ignore Ciel, and put your own revenge above this guaranteed option. Or you could take a chance and use it and get out of here, all of you.
Set up a private line on the terminal for you and Ciel. Talk to him yourself. Decide what to do from there. But please, don't take the option that's built into the experiment. Take the option that isn't.
I promise you, the dead will be fine when the power comes back online. Judy will be fine too. You probably won't have the time to say goodbye to them though, so do it before you run the attack. But you can come back, you know? When you're settled and safe and if you still want answers to all your questions. You can come back and talk... to all of us. We're not going anywhere, Angel, but you should.
Please get out of here.
